 Welcom y toffi TV yd Frank Llanparr is the new Everton Manager. He's been announced at last, the worst kept secret in football for the last few days, but he is the Everton Manager. He's very happy to be here. He said, he said so. He did, he did. So am i mor i'r initial thoughts? I think it's a good appointment, you know, as we've said before, given the names that were on the list, I think he's probably the best out of that bunch. He's still a massive risk. Obviously he's had no experience being in this situation. He's done well at Chelsea certainly in that first season. I was going to say with limited resources, but given the quality of their squad, that would be difficult to say. But he had no chance for a budget and he had to bring through some of the young players and he did that really well. And I think that's a massive positive coming to Everton is his ability to bring in the young players and give them a chance of just seeing Lewis Dobb inside a new contract. Anthony Gordon's been fantastic this season. I understand those Evertonians that are fully sold on it and don't fully believe that he's the right man. But, you know, as we've said, if we were sitting at a table and it was Diego Simeone and Pep Guardiola, and we'd go with Frank Lampard, then you could say that, you know, that doesn't make sense. But the managers that were on the list, you know, Vito Pereira, we obviously wanted Martinez, Marino was in there. You know, I know people will say, oh, Covaccia Garcia, but were they ever really on the list or were they just names thrown in there? Frank Lampard is the best of that bunch and the least risk. You know, obviously a lot of Evertonians have been really sort of staying in the Lampard ship over the last few days or so, especially when it become apparent that it was between him and Vito and how Duncan was put in the hat as well. So that will automatically create a much more positive feeling around the club than what it would have had Pereira had come in. You know, again, he's a young manager. He'll have a little bit of a chip on his shoulder, I think, to want to prove people wrong. He lost the Chelsea job, some would say unfairly. We know how Chelsea work if you lose, you know, a possession in the second half, you get sacked. That's just how it is. But I know, I remember a lot of Chelsea fans at the time who weren't very happy about it and who said it was the wrong decision. So Lampard has obviously been out of management since then, so I want to come in and prove that, you know, he can still be of a good manager in the Premier League, but this is a very, very different situation than what he was in in Chelsea. I think, obviously, evidently, you know, under far-ad-mashiri, we'll have a look in a minute at the managers under far-ad-mashiri, but under mashiri, he's tried different routes, as you know, he's tried, Ronald Coomham is his first managerial appointment, 53 years of age, Southampton, doing all right. He didn't work out. He never got the impression he really wants to be a manager. And evidently, that impression and should have bonded before it started, really. But, you know, and then obviously, all of that he's come in, he was 60-odd, and then he tried to go with a young coach with Marco Silva, digging quite well, and then it was back to the experience of Carlo Antialotti, 62 wherever he was, and then Rafa Benitez in his 60s. Does it give you any kind of excitement if that's the right word, that it's a young coach again, I think, and then it's yet to, you know, you've just set the point to prove fresh ideas. Does that give you any kind of hope that the football club are moving into a more progressive era? Yeah, it does. I think certainly with the last manager, Rafa Benitez, a lot of criticism that Benitez come under was because a lot of the football he was trying to play or the things he was trying to implement were 10, 15 years old and just wouldn't work in this modern day. And Antialotti come under a little bit of stick with that as well, Lampard, obviously, not only as a young manager, but has not long stopped playing the game. So again, it's been through that progression of how you would make a team successful in the early 2000s, versus how it needs to be successful and how it's grown, the later that football has gone. So it does give me a bit of confidence that he'll know that he's worked, as I said, at two football clubs in this sort of era of football. Attack and football, you look at the likes of Rhys James or Chelsea, give him his big opportunity and moulded him into the player that he is today, Mason Mount, Tammy Abraham. For Kyle Tamori, of course, as well. So it does give me confidence because I don't think we'll be sitting here having that conversation of this worked for this manager 15 years ago, but it's not going to work now. I think we'll be very much looking at a forward thinking manager who knows more than here and now of football. From what I've seen and what I've read, he plays very positive football. He wants to move forward. He seems happy to be here. I think one of the most important things as well is he hasn't really got time to settle in Lampard. This isn't like it was in the summer or it will be in the summer where it's all give the players two or three weeks to see if it's good enough for new fits that we've seen already. Heavily linked with Donnie van der Beek according to reports that ones are done deal. Lampard was even officially announced. There's players in the pipeline to bring in that I can only assume have come from him. And it's the same with the current playing squad. He won't have time to think what can I do here who fits right. It's got to be straight ahead, work from the off. Does it worry you that obviously when he was at Darby and when he was at Chelsea they conceded a lot of goals both teams because of his expanse of where you're playing. Everton, for the issue all season conceding goals. And one of my and this isn't it because I've got faith that he will get us playing a different way and he's got to address that and obviously he's still got Duncan Fergus and Alan Kelly there who will know about this squad of players and obviously there's staff Paul Clements and people like that are coming. So I'm not saying he's not going to be able to solve it but one of the first things he has to solve is how poor a seven are because if the way he wants a player is open and we're already letting goals in when we try to be not open that is an issue and yet I do feel like this Everton side still is miles better than what it's showing and so maybe the freshness of ideas maybe the players are being costum because they didn't actually like the last fella in terms of we don't actually it's not I don't always believe like it's I don't like you so I'm not trying but it's whether they fully believe in what's being said so when you cross that white line no Everton player and Alex O'Wobee is included in this crosses that white line to play crap the professional footballers and they want the atlation they want to come off and everyone's like my god you were amazing today you were amazing everton but for whatever reason and there is no doubt a talent for whatever reason it's not working and we are letting goals in and it is that thing of something keeps happening and you're looking at that fella on the line to go well if you didn't get us doing this we'd be able to solve that and so do you think that since he's come out the game and then criticism where laid arm is that the two open, the two expansive do you think he'd have been looking at ways to negate that and is that the biggest thing that he has to get right immediately stop Everton conceding goals yeah well I hope so and I hope that was a question put to him in the interview process by the owner and whoever else was interviewing him is luck as you mentioned his record of conceding goals wasn't particularly great at either of his last two clubs and that's something that you're right Everton really need to focus on because Everton goals hasn't really been our issue okay we didn't score against Villa and we had chances but you've got Calvert, Llewyn, Recharlasen Anthony Gordon, Townsend they'll score goals we've got Al-Ghazi in there who now is coming in it is the stopping conceding goals and okay you've got Mina coming back and that will improve things but set pieces is another thing you need to focus on straight away because if you can see the set piece nowadays you can pretty much guarantee it's a goal we've conceded them out which is shocking so I hope he'll have learnt his lessons and I'm sure he will have because he'll have been sacked by Chelsea and will probably have thought what went wrong how could I have avoided that and conceding the goals that he conceded was one of the big things and getting his head down and as I said that should have been one of the number one questions he was asked is how have you changed from this time because we really need the changed Frank Lampard and not the Frank Lampard so many at Chelsea and again you'll have to sort that out and you'll have to put that in play because we can't keep conceding the goals we conceded we can't keep going into games thinking if we score two we'll concede three we need to start keeping clean sheets we need to start getting points on the board and that's something that he's going to have to focus on and I think he will focus on I think like I said having Mina back will be a massive positive full backs will be interesting to see how that works coming back at us defensively that's what you may feel that's the drop in though maybe that's where Amanda B comes into it we saw this probably best executed under either David Moyes or even Roberto March and James with when the full backs flew on Gareth Barry and James McCarty sat in and dropped in but we still had enough plays at the other end of the pitch and I guess that's what where Edithon Wain doing it under Rafa Benitez look at Dean basically left because Benitez wouldn't let him cross the halfway now that was where the problem started that's a whole different conversation and the right and the wrongs and probably from a managerial point of view he was probably right to get Dean out because he was questioning but from a football point of view and from a players point of view let me go and do what I'm doing I think what Lampard likes to do is have his full backs creating an overload and getting on the outside and Nathan Patterson we saw him play for the 23 years last week create the goal likes to be on the front foot that's what we like to see Michalenko we saw that in Kiev he likes to get up with the Ukraine he likes to get forward and get balls into the box so we need that I guess in Everton's last game Duncan Ferguson tried to make us more solid with Ben Goffrey and John Joe Kenney I think where it went wrong for Duncan on the day was it's fine being solid and if you're playing in a 4-4-2 which is fine, a lot of editories want Diego Simeone so you can be successful but what you have to do is your full backs have to create you with Ben Goffrey every time he steams down the line he has to come back on to his right foot so it's gone so the width was gone so on what lampard I think we'll want to do is get these two full backs on the outside so it's imperative that the two lads playing in the middle of the park sit with the centre backs and make sure we're not sprung very quickly because just numerically we still should have six attackers even with the four back and at times you can have seven because one sits with the two if you look at the thing he does it really well for Aston Villa actually Douglas Lewis when they bomb on he just sits in with the two centre backs so the villa will have seven and we've seen great examples of Manchester City with Fernandinho and Roger he does it now where everyone's committed even Liverpool at times with Van Dijk and whoever it is matter whatever they'll always have Fabinho they've got three cover and I think even if they've got to get back to that maybe what lampard will do is because he likes possession based football as well we may have more of the ball and be able to move it a little bit better and that might bring more of this squad out because no matter what anybody says us as fans we can be critical and he's crap he's crap whatever these players are miles better than what they've shown they're miles better they're either managers or other coaches or other people who aren't in the game going that's squad they've got they should be nowhere near that position and maybe lampard can come in and go we want to play this way and we want to play that way and that'll get the best start of what we've got let's have a look at I mean Farad Miseries he's just appointed this six permanent manager in the six years that he's been in ever and had three managers so that's where we go but let's have a look at the managers who he's had and they kind of win rates before they came through the door Ronald Coomber had the 51% win rate Sam Halladais had the 37% win rate Marko Silvett 50% win rate Calamantuloti 57% win rate I actually thought that would be higher Rafa Benitez had the 45% win rate and flank lampard is currently at a 50% win rate so lampard is kind of Coomber, Silvett they part the course really Calam was obviously above that but better win rate than Halladais and Benitez which I guess what people would say is that they're more about risk, they don't take risk so their win rate will be lower they probably don't lose as many of those cheap games or whatever so we're getting a manager that likes to be on the front foot do you think the fans will respond to that? Yeah absolutely I think a big part of this appointment and maybe decision was the reaction that the fans were going to have we've said before me and Peds had last week that this is the time now where we as fans need to get behind the manager and the team because regardless of who's in the dugout or who's on the pitch these players will come and go the managers will come and go, the owners will come and go we are the one constant and if we're waiting for the reaction from the players if we still have this very much well we'll create an atmosphere then we're just going to keep in this constant you know, again, duel one vs each other and it's never going to work we need to get to goodness and every one of the remaining however many games of the season I'm making an absolute paper for the opposition and the players will react to that Isn't this an issue we've had for a while? It is yeah, it's been going on for a long long time and I think again this season specifically speaking there's been a lot of anxiety and nervousness around the fan base and around the club getting to goodness although we should, you're not thinking right, let's make an absolute noise you're thinking what's going to happen today we're going to conceive from this set piece so we're going to win, there's a lot of worry and as I said, nervousness around it whereas we need to put that to one side now and make goodness an absolute paper every time we're there and I think the Lampard appointment will help create that because there's already more optimism than there would have been with other managers that were linked with us and some of his managerial stats now, so 141 matches he's had 70 wins, 30 draws 41 losses he's currently averaging 1.7 points again he's obviously 2.5 years as a manager there full season of Chelsea, full season of Derby and obviously the half season so you know 1.7 he's at Derby County he didn't have a lot of money he had to work with loans got the squad into the playoffs lost in the final to Ville he was unlucky there I remember watching them against Leeds actually watched both playoff games that season against Leeds and Leeds were better than my prior part but when he went to Ellen Road he batted them Derby, he was brilliant that night he was absolutely brilliant and beat Leeds, we know that we've seen how offensive he was at Chelsea as well did really at times did really well you know got some great wins in the Champions League and things like that in fact the last games before lockdown he built the last game he built at us 4-0 didn't he it's not the bridge that destroyed us what a day that came a couple of months after we beat them 3-1 at Goulderson he gained the highs and lows that he could produce but people will say well I'm going to the level he had at Chelsea he's miles better than what he had at Evan we know that but I think me and Perth are talking on one of the lives Perth is saying well yeah but the expectancy at Chelsea there's always stuff that you've got to be hitting you said it before you lose the possession it almost feels like you're about to lose your job he won't there's a different level of expectancy there's a different level of pressure with the situation now in the summer obviously wouldn't have been as much of a pressure situation his goal now is ultimately to keep Evan in the Premier League and win the games that he needs to win in order to do that and that's a different pressure to win in the league which is at Chelsea but if he was at any of the top clubs he probably wouldn't have been sacked at the time that he was sacked at Chelsea he was at the moment that they were looking to sack Thomas Tushley won the Champions League last year which is absolutely bonkers but that's how they run their business and Frank Lampard knows that more than anybody because he was at that club for so long so you're right it's a different level of expectancy looking at winning the league finishing the Champions League in that season where he couldn't spend any money and if he was to get anywhere near European football with Evan then it would be an absolute miracle as I said it's a different level of pressure but we're talking about a player who won 11 major trophies manager who won 11 major trophies as a player and you know has got that winning mentality and that knowing what it means in no difficult times to win 950 odd games there you go as a player he's done the 300 goals he's been there and albeit he hasn't really maybe when he was at West Ham in his early days he hasn't really been in this sort of situation he'll know what it takes to go out there and win games of football Let's have a look at his Premier League manager stats let's have a look at them because obviously that's what we're after right now and we hope we carry on he's had 57 games as a Premier League manager he won 28 of them drew 11 and lost 18 averaging 1.67 points per game which comfortably keeps you in the Premier League if you get 1.6 I think if Everton end up with 1.67 points per game from his 18 games we will comfortably be safe again the caveat being he did have some good plays so I mean listen he's in I think you at the nail on before a lot of Evertonians wanted him or banging the drum there's no reason now not to get behind you know we've got we've almost got the perfect opportunity for the first game of the weekend there's no pressure there's always pressure but what I mean is it's not a Premier League game so it's an FA Cup try against Brentford it's a good a home game we've got players there Patterson, Michal Encoe who can come in get them involved who knows at the time of recording there's still quite a few hours left on deadline day Everton may still add another couple we know don't even have the beaks in the door but we've got to get moving forward now with this fella and I'm behind him fully behind him young manager I'm glad like you've said before I'm glad Duncan has stayed he's brought some good members of staffing with him Paul Clements you know we know he's got a good rep Joe Edwards is the assistant manager which you know he was the that's amazing interest in one I think that he is the assistant manager when Paul Clements there he's obviously more experienced and being Carlos assistant that Joe Edwards who was very successful at Chelsea with the youth the youth side and bringing players there I think that's really important so things are in place now I would absolutely love it because on paper and we don't play on paper we know that on paper if you look at it if this went the way it could go positively it could be the ideal appointment for Evan he's 43 years of age we're moving into a new stadium just over 2 years if he could get it a team playing nice football and doing well top half finishes and all that progression we could really grow together I'm not jumping ahead on myself I'm really not I'm just saying rather than think of the way we felt in the summer and Rafa Benitez was a point of there was like there was already a big black cloud over it because of the Liverpool stuff more so for me the way he played footy that was the biggest one for me of having seen Newcastle but there was never a situation where people were going to buy into it we were never going to be you were never seeing something where you were with my manager that classic like me that you see every with there's my manager and all that stuff no-one was ever doing that no-one was ever singing Rafa Benitez's Bloom White Army where it just wasn't happening you can imagine the street end or the away fans singing Frankie Lampard's Bloom White Army you can just the way it is you can imagine people buying into it we were never releasing a Rafa Benitez T-shirt Evan but I imagine Peddy's already drawn up quite a few ideas for some meeting Frankie goes to hail Frankie goes to hail but that's a classic for people who don't know Finch Farm isn't hail so there's all of that stuff that is very little but it also becomes a big thing because you want to sing about your manager you want to sing about the team you want to look at that manager and go right behind him you want it all to feel like you're all on the same page and we had that with Carlo Covid come and who knows how great that could have gone with Covid if we were all in stadiums but we missed it only Everton could miss a thing in the year of not singing Hamers Rodriguez in an Everton kiss Did we ever actually sing? Never People singing about old Trafford in the friendly Doesn't count I mean Peddy's supposed to sing but there you go but all of that stuff so we need something to believe in we need something to hang on to and like you said before we tried many other things He's also a manager I think the players will look at and he's been everywhere the parade of stuff I think it would be very easy for this squad to go you've not done anything you've not done anything not as a player and as a manager in the top leagues of Europe none of the method plays looking at Frank LLampard Just before we finished Frank LLampard did of course break our hearts He did in the 2009 Good times Great times getting to Cup Finals Just before we finished Do you think that matters he's just out the game I think he retired five years ago played in MLS and he was very good in MLS actually but do you think as a player you'd look at Frank LLampard and go this fellow is one of the premier league greatest players like gold scorer Do you think that matters to these players now It should do and if they don't look at them and think that then there's a problem with their attitude and ultimately what they want if these players want to be successful and want to be at the top of their game in the premier league which is the league that they're in at the moment then who better to look at than somebody that's won it so many times being a Champions League winner and a multi-time FA Cup winner and go he's going to know how to do it isn't he he's one of the premier leagues and played for Manchester City Chelsea for most of his career unbelievable midfielder so if that's what these players want which it should be and if it's not then that's an issue in itself off you go and if that's what they want then and they don't look at Lampard and think I'm going to take every word that comes out of his mouth as I need to listen to then again there's another problem with them it's better to be told by than a serial winner we are finishing now but I've watched quite a few interviews with them over the last few days having COVID it gives you that time to do it doesn't it one of the things that came out over and over again from him and from people talking about him was how much of a hard worker he is you know real fed na'n say many people at West Ham as a kid training and finishing doing other hour on his own and Ferdinand was like I need to be doing that and players started jumping on just constantly doing it going to get better and better listening to him do interviews talks very much about hard work being focused that is one of his non-negotiables as they call it is hard work and if they don't want to come along one of the things he said early on to Chelsea and to Derby this is what we expect if you don't want to come along with that fine let us know and if you pop but if you're going to be with the group you always have to do these other things we'll see if it works but that is what you want to hear don't you think and maybe because he's a bit younger and he's got me I don't know maybe the players I don't know we're looking for any little grass buds green shoot of recovery anyway and if you can't be positive on day one then what's the point there's a lot of blues you couldn't be positive exactly there you go big thanks to camp Frank Lampard is evidence manager let us know what you think in the comments section below make sure you give the video a thumbs up subscribe if you haven't and if you want more videos including daily live videos join us on patreon lots of you have lots of you will love one of the link in the description thanks for watching see you later
